Larry Hastings 2a727916c5 Issue #20226: Major improvements to Argument Clinic.
* You may now specify an expression as the default value for a
  parameter!  Example: "sys.maxsize - 1".  This support is
  intentionally quite limited; you may only use values that
  can be represented as static C values.
* Removed "doc_default", simplified support for "c_default"
  and "py_default".  (I'm not sure we still even need
  "py_default", but I'm leaving it in for now in case a
  use presents itself.)
* Parameter lines support a trailing '\\' as a line
  continuation character, allowing you to break up long lines.
* The argument parsing code generated when supporting optional
  groups now uses PyTuple_GET_SIZE instead of PyTuple_GetSize,
  leading to a 850% speedup in parsing.  (Just kidding, this
  is an unmeasurable difference.)
* A bugfix for the recent regression where the generated
  prototype from pydoc for builtins would be littered with
  unreadable "=<object ...>"" default values for parameters
  that had no default value.
* Converted some asserts into proper failure messages.
* Many doc improvements and fixes.

Nick Coghlan 7d270ee05d Issue #16129: Add `Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding`
This new pre-initialization API allows embedding
applications like Blender to force a particular
encoding and error handler for the standard IO streams.

Also refactors Modules/_testembed.c to let us start
testing multiple embedding scenarios.

Victor Stinner 2fe9bac4dc Close #16742: Fix misuse of memory allocations in PyOS_Readline()
The GIL must be held to call PyMem_Malloc(), whereas PyOS_Readline() releases
the GIL to read input.

The result of the C callback PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer must now be a string
allocated by PyMem_RawMalloc() or PyMem_RawRealloc() (or NULL if an error
occurred), instead of a string allocated by PyMem_Malloc() or PyMem_Realloc().

Fixing this issue was required to setup a hook on PyMem_Malloc(), for example
using the tracemalloc module.

PyOS_Readline() copies the result of PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer() into a new
buffer allocated by PyMem_Malloc(). So the public API of PyOS_Readline() does
not change.

domain (PyMem_Malloc/Realloc/Free functions).

* PyObject_Malloc()/PyObject_Realloc() now falls back to
  PyMem_Malloc()/PyMem_Realloc() for allocations larger than 512 bytes.

Brett Cannon 8f5ac5106e Issue #15767: Touch up ModuleNotFoundError usage by import.
Forgot to raise ModuleNotFoundError when None is found in sys.modules.
This led to introducing the C function PyErr_SetImportErrorSubclass()
to make setting ModuleNotFoundError easier.

Also updated the reference docs to mention ModuleNotFoundError
appropriately. Updated the docs for ModuleNotFoundError to mention the
None in sys.modules case.

Lastly, it was noticed that PyErr_SetImportError() was not setting an
exception when returning None in one case. That issue is now fixed.
2013-06-12 23:29:18 -04:00
Brett Cannon b1611e2772 Issue #15767: Introduce ModuleNotFoundError, a subclass of
ImportError.

The exception is raised by import when a module could not be found.
Technically this is defined as no viable loader could be found for the
specified module. This includes ``from ... import`` statements so that
the module usage is consistent for all situations where import
couldn't find what was requested.

This should allow for the common idiom of::

  try:
    import something
  except ImportError:
    pass

to be updated to using ModuleNotFoundError and not accidentally mask
ImportError messages that should propagate (e.g. issues with a
loader).

This work was driven by the fact that the ``from ... import``
statement needed to be able to tell the difference between an
ImportError that simply couldn't find a module (and thus silence the
exception so that ceval can raise it) and an ImportError that
represented an actual problem.

Brett Cannon 4c14b5de1c #17115,17116: Have modules initialize the __package__ and __loader__
attributes to None.

The long-term goal is for people to be able to rely on these
attributes existing and checking for None to see if they have been
set. Since import itself sets these attributes when a loader does not
the only instances when the attributes are None are from someone
overloading __import__() and not using a loader or someone creating a
module from scratch.

This patch also unifies module initialization. Before you could have
different attributes with default values depending on how the module
object was created. Now the only way to not get the same default set
of attributes is to circumvent initialization by calling
ModuleType.__new__() directly.

Also added a versionchanged note for PyImport_ImportModuleLevel() just
in case people don't make the connection between changes to
__import__() and this C function.

Brett Cannon a6473f9cfd Issues #15169, #14599: Make PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames() use
Lib/imp.py for imp.source_from_cache() instead of its own C version.

Also change PyImport_ExecCodeModuleObject() to not infer the source
path from the bytecode path like
PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames() does. This makes the function
less magical.

This also has the side-effect of removing all uses of MAXPATHLEN in
Python/import.c which can cause failures on really long filenames.

Stefan Krah 9a2d99e28a - Issue #10181: New memoryview implementation fixes multiple ownership
and lifetime issues of dynamically allocated Py_buffer members (#9990)
  as well as crashes (#8305, #7433). Many new features have been added
  (See whatsnew/3.3), and the documentation has been updated extensively.
  The ndarray test object from _testbuffer.c implements all aspects of
  PEP-3118, so further development towards the complete implementation
  of the PEP can proceed in a test-driven manner.

  Thanks to Nick Coghlan, Antoine Pitrou and Pauli Virtanen for review
  and many ideas.

- Issue #12834: Fix incorrect results of memoryview.tobytes() for
  non-contiguous arrays.

- Issue #5231: Introduce memoryview.cast() method that allows changing
  format and shape without making a copy of the underlying memory.

   decoding error. The function doesn't write the error message directly to
   stderr.
 * Fix time.strftime() (if wcsftime() is missing): decode strftime() result
